New Song: Sensitive Badass

We are excited to debut our newest song, "Sensitive Badass" for you!

"Sensitive Badass" is a song about trying to be strong, fierce, and honest. It's about exploring being a person, and trying not to listen when people, even the voices inside, tell you to be quiet. Right now it's especially important for folks to be loud, to not accept what's happening, to make a change, and make a ruckus. And even when you try to be strong, you're going to feel vulnerable and scared. That's ok. You can be sensitive and still be a badass.
It's been hard to write music for the last few weeks given the challenges we know that our friends and we will be looking at for the next few years, but we decided we aren't going to stop, and we hope you keep going on, too, with renewed purpose and determination.

The video was filmed on the bus from Seattle to Portland.The song is from the forthcoming Doubleclicks album, "Love Problems," out 2017. Based on conversations with amazing friends especially the amazing Jenn from Twogether Studios.LYRICS:I let things bother me that I shouldn't let bother meand I feel sorry like I should be strongerI know I shouldn't listen to the insults or the hecklesbut I listen and they all stick with me longerMy friend Michael Bain told me this is becausewe're evolved to remember the things that endanger usIf I was an animal searching for foodI would always be vigilant for things that are dangerousSo if when I am in real life or reading the commentsI'll always remember those who cross the lineAnd not all the wonderful women and childrenwho tell us we've helped them by speaking our mindIf it is negative I'll memorize it fastBecause I'm sensitive, not just a badassI am sensitive, I am a badassI act like I'm cocky I have a personacause I don't want to seem like I'm open for feedbackBut that's just because I internalize everything…that I should redactI don't know if it's clear that that's just who I have to beI love my friends, I love them so much more than meIt feels like they all know just who they want to beAnd I'll always feel lucky that anyone talks to meI wanna say, let's start a band that just yells at the manand never has a Facebook page and never does signingsI'm so scared about emails from moderate straight white cis malesthat I stop myself writing when I feel like I'm whiningDon't tell me to calm down, don't tell me it will passI'm not just sensitive, I am a badassI am sensitive, I am a badassIf you haven't yet realized that we are political,you haven't listened so we will start yellingI often want to just burn down the world,sometimes I'm an anarchist, sometimes I'm a pacifistI just want all of us to love each otherand listen when somebody tells you they're hurtingI want us to maximize joy and equalityinstead of what we're earningI'm a survivor, and if you're a survivor tooWe want you to know, that both of us believe youYou have the strength, and though all of the scars will last…You can be sensitive and still a badassI am sensitive, I am a badassI am sensitive, I am a badass
